India vs West Indies 2016 T20: 5 players who make West Indies hard to beat

West Indies won the World T20 for the 2nd time in 3 editions

#5 New powerhouse Carlos Braithwaite

Carlos Braithwaite will always remember hs heroics at the Eden Gardens in the 2016 World T20 finais

The Men in Blue would have seen what this man did to England in the T20 World Cup final at the Eden Garden’s and will try to come prepared. Selected in the team primarily as a bowler, Braithwaite created history in the 2016 World Cup final smashing four consecutive sixes of Ben Stokes in the final over to help West Indies win the World Cup for the 2nd time in 3 editions. It was an immense contribution from the young man when the chips were down.

Given the captaincy very recently after Darren Sammy was sacked unceremoniously, Braithwaite will look to grow in stature as an all-round player and will hope captaincy doesn’t affect his performance in any way. Though he is relatively inexperienced in the team, captaining a star-studded West Indies team will help him to evolve as a player and learn from the more experienced guys.
